THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Minister E P Jayarajan has finally found out the reason why coconut tree climbers are leaving their job.

“There will be callus marks on the arms and legs of coconut tree climbers and therefore girls don’t come forward to marry these men. This is the reason why men are giving up their coconut climbing jobs,” the minister said.

In the past, lots of men were into this profession. As per dermatology, those who regularly climb the coconut tree will develop callus marks on their arms and legs. If they are young, girls would not be willing to marry them. So what is the way out for them? They will discontinue this job,” Jayarajan clarified.
